The Mount Shasta Bears traveled to Etna Tuesday night for both JV and varsity volleyball action.

The Bears were able to walk away from both contests as the victors as the varsity squad improved to 4-2 in the Shasta Cascade League this year. The Etna Lions varsity squad fell to 1-4 in league with the 19-25, 8-25, 14-25 loss.

The first set started out neck-and-neck, with Etna looking very strong. They were up 16-3 as Mt. Shasta went on a 12-3 scoring run to take the first set 25-19. The scoring woes continued for Etna as the Bears jumped to a 6-1 start.

The lead continued to grow for Mount Shasta, maxing out at 17 as they took the second set 25-8. The third set was close in the beginning, but ultimately, the Bears pulled away and took the set, 25-14.

"I think it's safe to say this game went pretty well," Mount Shasta head coach Greta Jones said. "The girls are really starting to play together and work together as a single unit. From this game I could tell that they're really playing together as a team. Our outside hitters were great, Tori Hansen had a really good game."
